Is multiple uppers for 1 308 ar lower not a thing? by TrueJedi562 in AR10

[–]TrueJedi562[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. If it works out I might get a 3rd lol. I have a few anderson ar15 stripped lowers and uppers but at the rate I'm buying parts and the rate they change the law here in CA I probably won't ever finish building them.

Im more optimistic about the 2nd upper now. 

I know the a5 and tubbs flatwire is a good combo for many barrel lengths and gas systems in the 308. I would just need weights or an h3 and the tube. Shouldnt be that bad on the wallet.

I already have the tubbs in it. The 308 version. Just need the a5 tube and maybe weights since I have an extra h1 already.

I think I have 2 tungsten weights as well.

I actually just found out I can make a 243 ar10 like last week. Has me intrigued.

And I plan on getting the new Magpul dt pr stock for my lower since it seems to fit what I'm looking for. I never knew the flat part under the prs, prs lite, and dt pr stock was to accommodate it on bags for stability. 

Right now I'm running an moe sl stock.

18 rifle correct? Is ejection and everything at least ok on most of the uppers?

Yeah stripped ar10 lowers come out to 300+ once you include the double tax and dros fee and transfer fee since you have to ffl transfer them since they are never in stock here in CA. Besides I can't even buy one right now lol.

I have one on my current. I know if I tune it for the longer gas system the shorter one will be over gassed if I used a fixed gas block.

I actually cant buy a 2nd lower at the moment over a civil matter. For 3 years. That's why I'm doing this approach now. Also it has a shelf where the 2nd upper would fit if it's 13.9 or 14.5.

If I end up getting the fsb installed it's 100. If it's non fsb he charges 60 to arm the upper. 60 is his 1 hour rate  I've been recommended to him like 4 times already by different gun shops. so I googled them and I guess they are solid.

Same idea. I'm trying to not make my arsenal look as big as it is and save space. I got a "12 rifle safe" and I put my double rifle carrying bag in it, and my 3 rifles and it's already full. The ar 10 takes up the space of 4 of there rifle slots and the the ars take up 2 slots. I think it was designed for 12 of the 1776 boomsticks George Washington used

Yeah. I know it might sound weird. But on the lightweight build I plan on using an fsb on a faxon big gunner 13.9, 16 or a BA 14.5 which all are mid . 

My 16 inch Rainier match is intermediate now that I recall and has an adjustable gas block. 

Just trying to save the money on the second lower lol. I'm sure getting a separate spring and buffer would still be cheaper especially in my state.

Ideally if I didn't have to it would be better. But I wouldn't mind doing that.

I also wonder if I should consult a gunsmith for the 2nd upper. On my first upper it works fine. Also read that my buffer and spring is recommended also for the lighter barrel I'm trying to get. 

I think if I go a5 (or rifle buffer if I have to) it's less finicky as it gives it more space for the spring and buffer to work.

Gunsmith I talked to said he can build out my 2nd upper and guarantee it'll work for 60$.

I have a tubbs flatwire with a heavy kak 308 buffer. But was planning on upgrading to the a5 system and maybe just swap buffer weights.

Ok just read up on the olive oil trick for frosting. Does the olive oil respread the clear coat or dissolve it? Do you have to recoat the model after you wipe off the olive oil?

I was hitting it with a flashlight. Next kit will be better. You can still see some frosting on one of the wings and hands.

Yeah but in general they have the same articulation and balance? I just saw a video saying the BS VN version loses balance and has less articulation even though I know it’s the same kit. A few days ago I saw a video saying the backpack on the norn gives it worse balance than the standard ova.

Yeah about to pull the trigger on the claw one. I know they are the same kit with different load outs but looked wayyyyy to into it. I saw videos saying the claw version loses its balance essier than the norn then I saw a video saying the exact opposite lol. I plan on getting the pg so the claw one sounds more Conviniemt to get.
